Answer 1

Probably it would be fine, but there are crock pot liners on the market. (I think made by the Reynolds Wrap people) They're supposed to keep the crock pot clean. I used one once and everything started out just fine, but after a few hours, the bottom of the crock pot broke! I had to throw away the meal just before dinner! NOT COOL!!! I had the kind that you can pull the pot out for washing. It was fairly new and had no cracks before I started. Maybe I just had bad luck, but I don't recommend them to anyone!

I would write to the company that made your crock pot and tell them that you love it and have used it so mcuh that the paint/glaze is wearing off. Who knows-they might just replace it for you to keep a customer happy. At least they would know if it was safe or not.

My ultimate guess is which you had the "appropriate hurricane" of here problems: a million. incorrect cut back of pink meat 2. no longer sufficient liquid 3. Over cooking. 4. too plenty commencing off of the crock pot lid. For a pot roast interior the crockpot, you ought to use a roast that has a sturdy deal of marbling in the time of. A chuck roast or a sirloin roast may well be sturdy possibilities. you ought to use a around roast or a rump roast, yet they require extra liquid. Which brings me to difficulty no. 2: no longer sufficient liquid. in case you do use a around or rump roast, confirm to function a minimum of a million/2 cup of water/broth/wine to the crockpot. which will provide the beef the mandatory liquid to grow to be comfortable. difficulty No. 3: Overcooking. reckoning on weight, you in all probability shouldn't cook it extra desirable than 8-10 hours on low, and that i'm being beneficiant. As to the previous "vegetable on the backside" difficulty. permit me be very sparkling: the producer ITSELF recommends which you placed the vegetables on the backside. interior the sluggish cook ecosystem, vegetables cook plenty extra slowly than meat does. As for the undertaking of the liquid reaching the beef, that's no longer a difficulty interior the sluggish cooker ecosystem, because of the fact most of the steam this is generated in the process the sluggish cook approach maintains to be interior the sluggish cooker.... until..... Did you verify the sluggish cooker frequently by skill of lifting the lid? stand up to the temptation. You lose a great sort of steam (besides as decelerate the cooking time) every time you elevate the lid. Use a timer, tape the dern element close, regardless of it takes.
